Hi--this may be a bit of a stretch but I have some Oliver descendents in Sterrettania, McKean Twp, Erie PA.My research (including a family bible)has the descendents of Benjamin Oliver (1725-?) from Nj through his daughter Sarah Oliver (1755-?) who married John Meeker.Their son John Oliver Meeker (1785-1859) married Jerusha Wilcox in 1813.They raised their family in Sterretannia and both are buried there.So far no Eliza's or Harriets although I do have a Louisa Elizabeth Meeker.I also have a note that Sarah Oliver had a brother James Oliver who died sometime after 1808.As I go through sources I will see If any other Oliver kin show up.That area is rather large but not densely settled so it is possible that the Olivers you are searching for are kin.
